Nationality issues in literary theory often Against With modernization and globalization.and in recent years, academics hot topic of discussion. In the past theories, ethnic literature is the basic attributes, pointing to a traditional culture of ethnic representation and to convey the spirit of the core. But through the modern literature on the history of different ethnic connotations for the period of review. We found that the ever-changing content of the national character and uncertainties. It has been the traditional culture as a symbol of resistance by the westernized thinking and sometimes become the new nation-state established by the helper, a new shape of the national character and spirit of the field, and when combined with the class discourse, to the populist side. The literature produced in the end the ethnic origin when he and other ideologies that so closely linked, in the configuration of nation-state played a role in what ? These are all worthy of our thought.Reading of nationalism in theory and most representative works with the times, on the basis of trying to categorize the analysis of the way, the connotation of the national character and construction methods to make answers.this article start on three parts.one, the national imagination and the Nationality of literatureThis chapter from the nation's definition, Analysis of the national and ethnic groups, such as the difference between the concept of similar meaning. Reveals a modern nation building process attributes and characteristics of the imagination. Modern British scholar Anderson will be a national definition for the imagination, the limited nature, while sovereignty over the "Community." The narrative text and other literature in the process of nation building played a role in adding fuel to the flames. Literature and the modern nationalist movement between the close cooperation led to the modern nation-state, the establishment and recognition. And the imagination of the nation-state building needs to promote modern literature and literary theory on the national character, the development of national literature.Second, the classic model building of the national characterConstruction of ethnic literature as the main field, mainly through the expression of ethnic nation-state literature and cultural nationalism, the two paths. National literature the main features is that it is the narrative theme of peoples and nations. Often is a "me" form of the narrative model. Combination of modern Chinese literary history, we find that the nation-state bear the literature of the new nation-state's imagination and on the legality of the demonstration of new China.ultural nationalism is a culture to confirm to the special nature of national identity. It is the national elite attempted to use "culture" to confirm the uniqueness of the consolidation of national culture and identity of a protest. Literature in a new era of regional development, the National Customs, the national language and culture and civil explore for literature on behalf of the Roots expressed a strong desire to return to the national culture.Third, now, how we imagine the nationwhen the impact of the decline literature, video of the mass media, the increasing prevalence of the times, give up the national character of the basic construction of the national character as a serious literary construct positions. The choice of the people can connect more, the spread of popular culture of television, movies, networks, and other mass media as a carrier. But in the new mode of transmission, the ethnic composition of the construction of the discourse is more complicated. Consumer culture, the state ideology, art and spirit of the logic of capital, in this pattern of conflict, mutual use of each other and integration. At that moment, the national character emerged to build the country's political ideology-driven variety of values, many social position, a variety of ideological system symbiotic co-exist.
